OUR PAYMENTS EXPERTISE STARTS WITH OUR PEOPLE
School trips are a formative time in a young person's life and education. Safely travelling away from home, whether it's to the next county or country, comes with a lot of work. Permission slips, fees to pay, back to pack, kit lists sent to parents, behaviour outlines explained, chaperones to organise and accommodation to source. The last thing teachers have to worry about is how much cash they need to withdraw and carry on them.
Let's pause right there. We wouldn’t use cash on a family or personal trip, so why are schools still expecting teachers to carry cash? Moving to an automated prepaid expense card system takes the stress out of cash for teachers and they can focus on the learning outcomes for students, instead of the security and responsibility of carrying a large amount of cash on them.
